Fluoropolymer NS™ (Nano-Surface)
Nano-Surface Fluoropolymer
Coatings- A processing breakthrough has been developed
which resolves many of the surface problems that occur
in precision assemblies: needles. probes, sensors, micron-sized
nozzles and orifices, and Micromechanical Systems/ MEMS
for critical applications in medical, industrial and
biotechnology. We apply a Nano-Surface fluoropolymer,
PLASMA-BONDED onto the surface using ultra-high vacuum
processing, performed at room temperature. This customized
precision vapor deposition process provides a unique
nano-structured fluoropolymer coating with extremely
tight tolerances without clogging or bridging, with
no damage to the substrate. The result is a great improvement
in surface properties with low surface energy, improved
friction and wear, reduced sticking, seizing and "stiction",
as well as greatly improved surface release and liquid
dispensing capabilities. Enhanced hydrophobicity (water-shedding) is provided to intricate
components, with zero dimensional change. USP CL VI
Biocompatible. Improved performance for a variety of
precision mechanical components. Many designs which
utilize the excellent bulk physical properties of various
metals, alloys and other new and high-tech materials
still are in need of improved surface performance for
optimum component design and superior overall performance.
